    Huh...where are you coming from with this? Surely you are not trying to imply that someone should have no custody of their children due to poverty?

    You need to join some folks in a reading comprehension class if you really believe that that was what I was implying....

    It's like you didn't read anything at all. You just learned a phrase and you wanted to throw it out somewhere so someone could hear you say it. Only one tip I have for you for next time. Make sure it actually applies.

    I still need to know exactly where the OP is in terms of immigration status.

    Filed but not adjudicated? Conditional resident? What?

    I still do not get where you were coming from, but if you prefer to not explain, so be it.

    OK. Let me help you out since you seem to be so slow.

    The support money isn't going to go far in NY. He's only required to support her to a certain level and that level IN NEW YORK is going to leave her destitute with a child.

    So... she's gonna need to get a job because sitting on her behind not working isn't going to cut it. This is the big city, not Indiana.

    Did I spell it out clear enough for you or should I slow it down ever slower?

    So, when I said that she would get a job as soon as she was permitted to work in the US, and you indicated that you doubted she would find one, you were just kidding?

    The I-864 would generally go through federal court though.

    With that said, I would like to know exactly what her status is.

    (Fwiw, Moody v. Sorokina is the case commonly cited for NY)
    I just passed my adjustment of status last May 3rd 2014,I got an RFE ( request for evidence) saying that i need to fill out another form because the form i filled out before was expired.
    Since the USCIS is asking me some forms,my process will be on hold until i get to send what they need.I cannot send it because my husband wont sign the form and he is keeping it from me,he hide it somewhere.

    I filed for adjustment of status ( conditional gc) but the USCIS is asking for some stuff and my process will be on hold until they get what they need,but i cannot send what they need because my husband is keeping it from me.

    I applied for a conditional but it is on hold riht now because they are asking for more documentations which i cannot send because my husband is keeping it from me.

    It appears you are not going to obtain permanent residency because you have not been involved in a good faith marriage long enough. That is likely the purpose of the information request, I gather hubby was not there to confirm your marriage is intact. If the child was born a US citizen, it is not likely the court will give custody to a parent departing the country. Ultimately the biggest outcome hinges on whether you are granted permanent residency.

    Hazel, I need a "yes" or "no" answer to this, okay?

    Have you actually been awarded your conditional card? You said you "passed" - does that mean you actually have a "conditional" card, or what?

    I need to know because the answer will change things dramatically.

    Oh do show me where the law - ANY law - which requires the marriage to be a certain length of time.
